Welcome!

I've set up this blog so that all my friends, relations and colleagues in the world of writing can keep up to speed with what I'm doing - from now on, I'll never have to say sorry for not keeping in touch.

You can find my novels as digital downloads on Apple iTunes, Kobo, Kindle and Nook, and most are available as print paperbacks, too.

Radio waves...

Ooh, exciting day today, went into the BBC Radio Devon studio in Exeter to talk to chat show host Katie Martin, of BBC Radio Solent. Katie was very complimentary about The Silver Locket, and asked me some interesting questions about historical research, which luckily I could answer.

Here's a photograph of me looking as if I do this every day. In fact, I was somewhat terrified and was dreading getting a coughing fit or doing something equally embarrassing, like knocking my cup of tea all over the BBC's expensive equipment. But Katie soon put me at my ease, and everything went well.

You can hear the interview on BBC iplayer - start 35 minutes into the programme.
